Today, M2SYS Technology released RightPatient™ the newest biometric identification platform that increases patient safety, lowers healthcare liability and stops medical identity theft. You can read more about the technology in our Press Release which you can find here:

Despite radical advances in healthcare technology over the past decade, the industry continues to suffer as billions of dollars are siphoned away, liabilities skyrocket, medical identity theft grows and patient health is jeopardized by health care fraud. Medical identity theft dominates all forms of health care fraud and continues to be the biggest fly in the health care soup, with patient identification hovering as one of the top concerns for health care professionals. It’s no surprise then that accurate patient identification has been number one on the list of the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations’ (JCAHO) Hospital National Patient Safety Goals since 1993. The medical field is increasingly recognizing that patient misidentification is a common, potentially deadly and largely preventable error.

RightPatient™ answers the call and aims to help save the healthcare industry over $70 billion annually by effectively preventing patient fraud and misidentification. It instantly interfaces with any EHR/EMR or patient management software allowing healthcare facilities to implement a scalable 1:N matching system with the ability to match millions of biometric templates per second. The system can be off to the races within 24 hours and M2SYS already has a number of custom interfaces developed for several popular EHR/EMR systems.
